I was thinking something to this effect, but using the snatch block for lift and it cuts the lines speed in half. While the rear winch pulled the YJ back out at speed.

I would clean my drawers.

Then call some kids or cheap manual labor over to save my back. Have them start digging and pay them a few bucks for their time.

Since I'm young and dumb, I would be digging a giant ramp out of there.

There was a trail here at one point, so the tracks go for more than a 100 yard in either way of this ditch/ravine.

Your thoughts would be appreciated,

Good times! Looks like you need Jesus to magically raise you out of there. Maybe even Buddha !

I dont care how you do it, just be sure to film and post!

If it was a 2012 JK, you could just use reverse.

Looks like pick and shovel time.

Seriously, good luck.
